“Customer feedback is our most important metric as we strive to deliver even more unique bespoke tours and experiences in The World’s Greatest Metropolis, and beyond!” Mac added.

“One important indicator of how satisfied clients are with their Maction Planet Tokyo Private Tours and Experiences is the number of new customers we have who contact us as a result of recommendations from former guests. As we all know, there is no greater endorsement than a word of mouth recommendation from a friend. Once again, thank you to everyone who has helped this virtuous cycle continue.”

Top 5% of all Tokyo Tours

At time of writing Maction Planet is currently ranked 12th out of 270 Tokyo tour offering listed on TripAdvisor.

“We are now in the Top 5% of all Tokyo tours. This has happened just over a year after launching our website and our move away from solely word-of-mouth recommendations. To have been evaluated so highly by our customers in such a short amount of time is a real honour.” said Mac.

“I would also to take this opportunity to also thank our Maction Planet Apparel customers. Often these are tour customers who are looking for a high quality souvenir or a gift to share their newfound love of the World’s Greatest Metropolis with their friends and family. We saw huge orders around Thanksgiving and Christmas. All our collaborators and I truly appreciate the comments we have received telling us how much you love our designs.”

Whether you are a travel guest or apparel customer, a regular reader of our blog or a listener to Maction Planet Radio, a huge DOMO ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU for your support.

Highlights from the reviews

“We are back in the U.S. and even now can’t get over how amazing Mac was. For anyone looking for a high end local experience, I suggest booking Mac immediately and trusting in his ability to steer you to the best of the best! It is not a coincidence that he has 100% 5 star reviews!” – Tarun J

“I had a few days before MACTION joined our party…wow!! Did the trip ever change when he showed up….his knowledge was unmatched and ideas were amazing..we saw all the stuff we wanted plus a bunch of this we didn’t even know were there…I’m an artist and l work for Marvel comics so i was looking for toys and cool comics…he made sure i got my fill….love it..” – kenlashley

“…if you don’t use Maction Planet, you will have wasted more than time, you will have wasted a great opportunity to see Tokyo with one of Tokyo’s greatest fans and master tour guide. Mac is “Tokyo Man”!” – drmattcasey

“Mac – Best person to be with in Japan, if you want a truly local experience. Easily the best tour we have had with children on board.” – Elton T

“Mac took me to an area I would never have thought to even google about!” – Xiaomai F

“Sin duda Mac es un gran guía,muy profesional y con gran gusto por lo que hace. Muy recomendable sin duda pasarán un gran tiempo con él.” – Yanis d

“[Mac’s] encyclopedic knowledge was impressive and he clearly has the passion to dedicate all his free time to bettering his knowledge of all things Japan! – Laura F

“Mac managed to have all four of us hanging off his every word as he whizzed us across metro lines from hidden corners to not-so-hidden corners of the city. It was our family’s last day of a 3 week trip to Japan with kids aged 9 and 11 from London – and Mac made it a truly memorable finale to an amazing trip.” – Lisa B

“Maction Planet – You won’t be disappointed. If you are seeking a professional yet friendly tour of Tokyo – then you should definitely hang out with Mac for the day.” – Vanessa G

“Mac is such a warm, magnetic guy, and I won’t easily forget how quickly he enchanted local Japanese people and they started chatting like good old buddies” – cur0nek0

“We travel a lot and have done many tours throughout the world. Mac by far was one of the best guides we’ve ever had.” – chrisfP6577YM

“It was bittersweet as our trip and time with Mac came to an end. If you want a “canned” tour of Tokyo, go with one of the chain tour companies. If you want to really learn about the culture (pop, current and past), history, food, drink and social life, there is only one tour company, Maction Planet. And one tour guide, Mac!!!” – Richard B

There are not enough good things to say about Mac at Maction Planet. We spent two days touring Tokyo with him in early December and it made our whole trip to Japan! We were fortunate enough to get him on very short notice but I would not recommend this. When you book your tickets for Japan you should book with Mac for a tour of Tokyo, you absolutely won’t regret it! – Lee Ann P
